The Best Yet.......2006-07-31

I think "Descarga en California" is Rebeca's best solo effort to date. It's awesome! I have all of her CDs, but this one stays in my CD player on a regular basis since it was released. To be honest I'm not usually much of a Latin jazz fan, although I am drawn to her music. I'm much more of a timba fan day to day. However, the compositions and the quality of the musical work on "Descarga..." is one of the bests I've ever heard. I especially like the drums and timbales on "Suena tu timbal", Serenata rítmica", and "Califas".

To bad I couldn't make it to Yoshi's for the release performance. It was just a bit far from northern VA. I hope she keeps up the great work. I can hardly wait for the next CD.

Gringos can jump!.......2003-02-23

I am humbled by Greg C's view of Tjader and can expain why this along with about 40 others by CT are a must. This guy was never seen by his peers as a gringo, he WAS "simpatico." He could hold his own with being the vibist with George Shearing, playing percussion with Dave Brubeck or letting it all hand out with Eddie Palmieri. He was discounted by too many critics of jazz because he saw a jazz classic in a McCartney/Lennon tune as much as a Gershwin piece. He was able to make more albums than just about anybody short of Miles,Dizzy or Oscar Peterson. I know it went into the hundreds! This LP is only refined by its inherent digital longevity. Hope my great,great,great grandchildren love it as much as I have.

Double Dose Of Tjader Tjuice.......2001-10-05

EXCELLENT! These two killer early 70s Tjader efforts (1971's "Agua Dulce" and 1972's "Live At The Funky Corners") can now be had together on one little shiny disc, which will save you shelling out $30-$40 for either of the original vinyl issues. This music demands nothing of you but to feel good and feel free, to either dance or contemplate a starry sky on a summer night. You'll be pleasantly surprised at how much melody Tjader wrings out of the Stones' "Gimme Shelter," and if "Morning" doesn't fill you with an immense sense of serenity and well-being, you're obviously in need of extensive therapy. It's a shame that music this good should exist beneath the radar of mass public exposure and familiarity, especially since Tjader's sweet, sweet sound enhanced many lives in its day. Don't even hesitate--get this right away, and disregard those jazz pundits who can't accept this wonderful music for the antidote-to-a-world-gone-insane that it is. Just pop it in the tray, hit "play" and immediately feel much sexier!

Album Description

The future sound of Little Havana, Miami, usa.

This full-length CD of live digital recordings from the notorious weekly at Hoy Como Ayer in Little Havana, Miami ('iFuacata!' translates loosely as Pow! or Wham!) documents the spam allstars' modern, Pan-American dance music. Seemlessly fusing funk, Miami bass, hip hop, dub, free jazz, descarga, guaguanco, and Afro-beat, " . . . an original concept in nightlife, a new Miami sound that has been described as a 'de-emphasis of the obvious', a 'controlled dissonance' and even a 'deconstructed rumba' . . ." (New York Times). Original eight-panel artwork by Lebo.

Customer Reviews:

Amazing.......2007-08-05

I saw them live a while back they were amazing...I bought the CD- I figured they couldnt transfer the amazing experience of a live concert on too a disk- they didnt- they did one better- Its an amazing experience on the same level as a live concert but completely different. This is by far the best CD purchase I have ever made.

Fried Neck Bones and Some Home Fries..........2005-09-27

Aye, c*no...esto es verdad. This is the sho-nuff greasy dripping stuff. I mean it's for real, ya dig? Ain't no mistake about it...plus, anybody, and I mean anybody who uses samples from the comedy of Alvarez Guedes is already doing something right. But, truth be known, I've been catching these guys live at their Fuacta show at Hoy Como Ayer for longer than I care to admit. Then came Jazid shows, I/O shows, other misc. shows, what have you. Bottom line, if they are playing in Miami, I'm there. Even been up to NYC and caught them there.

But you got it all here. You got the funky salsa soul of Azuquita a la "Pura Salsa" (check out "Guarjio Bacan" and tell me I'm lyin'). You got the groove of Joe Bataan before he committed blasphemy with disco-horror. You got the dripping grease of Willie Bobo, funkiness of Lebron Brothers, Patato, Candido, Tito Puente in his (Pa'lante Straight days), etc. Brothers/sisters you got more here than I can even say. Then you got some good ol' as* bumpin' Miami Bass and groove. It don't get no better nowheres.

Finally, brother John...gotta say this. Those of you see that review down below by John Speck? Well cats/kittens, know this...he be the 'bone player for this outfit. So, that let's you know where he might be coming from. Also does a thing or two with his own outfit called Bacon Bits, but he's a dam* fine member of this group and an equally fine 'bone player. But, just wanted to let it be known since he didn't see fit to disclose it himself.

Get this now...plus, if you hadn't already known, you'll get introduced to the MAGNIFICENT artwork of LEBO...also present on the Vida Blue release which these boys joined in on. Check out LEBO's work elsewhere (like his website for instance) and tell me you won't get addicted.

Enjoy.

This makes me feel good. Smile on your face with Spam All Stars.

If you like music...get this cd. If you like to dance...get this cd. If you are a dj...get this cd....

This is one of my all-time favorite CD's. You can't help but move. I've slipped this on at parties and watched people as they start to dance without even being aware of it. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Nice and Funky.......2004-04-26

I bought this CD and became a fan of spam allstars. Since then I've tried to go to all their shows and they were all amazing. This album is impossible not to pop to! Great original sounds. For anyone who likes funk and/or latin will enjoy this a lot. Theire new album is coming out on 5/7/04 by the way and it should pretty awesome, so keep an eye out for it!

Amazing Cuban Music.......2002-09-27

Who got me in love with Cuban music, both the folk and jazz varieties, is another Cuban group that bears the very patriotic name of "Cuarteto Patria". Since then, I have become accustomed to Jane Bunnet's beautiful albums, the "Buena Vista Social Club", and they all made me listen much more attentively to the Central and South American folk music. This album contains a string of songs so alive that you cannot sit down while listening to it. To me, it is amazing how so much good music can come out of such a small island. To the connoisseurs, this album is a confirmation, while for the newcomers it will be an eye opener.

great intro.......2001-06-21

This is a perfect way to get acquainted with the Afro-Cuban jazz phenomenon. This CD represents a compelling combo of artists from different time periods.

Amazon.com

Known in Latin-jazz circles for his virtuoso flute playing, Orlando "Maraca" Valle has produced a party album that follows the time-tested formula for the best Cuban music: masterful musicianship and an infectious good-time spirit that will keep dancers moving from the first track to the last. Like Olympic athletes, the members of Maraca's group and his guest artists execute their expert moves with apparent ease, delivering a "total jam session" that segues smoothly from classic son, danzón, and mambo to Latin jazz, Afro-Cuban chanting, rumba, rap, and the hard-driving Cuban dance fusion called timba. Notable soloists include groundbreaking Cuban funk percussionist Changuito, formerly of Los Van Van. Singer Félix Valdés recalls the improvisational vocal stylings of the Cuban soneros of the Big Band era, contrasting with grittier salsa tracks sung by Wilfredo Campa. Maraca and his band follow in the footsteps of Cachao's Master Sessions and the seminal output of Chucho Valdés and Irakere, with whom the prodigious Maraca began his career at the age of 16. Like the recordings of those Cuban greats, Descarga Total celebrates the sheer joy of good music. --Judy Cantor

Good Dancing.......2006-11-05

The first 4 songs are really good. It is worth your money. Josephine.

WOW!!!.......2002-05-23

This is by far the most amazig CD that I own. Its jam packed with sensuous sounds, honoring traditional Cuban rythms with a modern twist. This is like no other CD I have heard in the last couple of years, by far these musicians are extremely talented and their sounds are very superior to those from other Carribbean islands. The energy and passion is sure to blow off your speakers. If you don't own this CD, you're really missing out! It will keep you dancing all night long!

This is one GREAT CD! Masterly Cuban Latin Jazz........2001-06-20

"Descarga Total" (it means "Jam Session") is the latest release from leader and flautist Maraca and his band. All excellent musicians (this is Cuba were talking about, right!) they are leading exponents of Cuban Jazz which is a great concoction of Cuban rhythms allied to Jazz discipline and creativity.

The band has succeeded in producing a CD which mixes great compositions and high levels of musicianship. Maraca started his career with the very excellent Chucho Valdes and his band Irakere (check out some of their CDs most of which are outstanding) who, except for the US embargo against Cuba would be as huge in the US as they are in Europe. Anybody who has heard Irakere will know that they are a tough act to follow but in my opinion Maraca manages it. The sounds of the flute is entirely appropriate to the feel of the music and Maraca plays beautifully

There are many excellent cuts on this CD but the first "Descarga Total" and the second "Oye Guajira Mi Son" are particularly good. Congratulations to Maraca for writing all of the material to such a high standard. My feeling is that there is a lot more excellent music left to come out of this guy!

This band is now, in my opinion, the Latin Jazz outfit to watch, or more precisely, listen to and I will be following their progress with great interest.

An unhesitating recommendation; buy this!

Blazing.......2001-05-02

For lover's of Cuban music and its derivations, particularly the big band varieties, I highly recommend this album. Right from the first song, 'Descarga Total', this recording is high energy, fast, danceable music. The second song 'Oye Guajira mi son' is PACKED with sabor -- done right, the way it should be! I'm also a big fan of the seventh song, Mambo con Chachacha with its loud trumpet and pumping rhythm. I had the good fortune of catching Orlando Valle playing at SOB's in New York and I was thrilled to hear them play BETTER live (and with only half their band) -- which is saying a lot considering how over-produced some albums are these days.

The description of the songs in the liner notes was also very helpful for me in distinguishing the different veins of development in Cuban music, as well as the various influences.

I've listened to lots of dance music from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Columbia, Dominican Republic, Congo, and the United States (NY, Miami and LA). Descarga Total is one of the BEST new albums I've heard in a while and I highly recommend it -- and if you can, go and see them play live!

Traditional forms + a twist of humor = a blast.......2001-02-27

What a refreshing disk this is! I was beginning to lose some of my enthusiasm for Cuban music because a few recent disks have seemed too blatantly commercial and over-marketed, a little too much geared to ride a wave of popularity. Here's a disk where everyone is just having a blast and enjoying the music. There is a fine combination of traditional sounds and rhythms and yet with a little, good-natured, satirical bent. For example, they nod and pay their respects to Perez Prado in the mambo-cha, but with a grin on their faces. Listen to the pizzicati strings, or to the way the piano suddenly barges in. This song and the superb opening track would make the album getting just by themselves. The rest of the tracks are fine, too. Excellent musicianship and ensemble playing, freshness and verve.
